Gang Aft Agley
FOUND by Jeffrey Silverman
in Baltimore, Maryland
I found this at Johns Hopkins University. It was on the ground on Art Museum Drive, just a couple hundred feet north of 29th St.

That's a special morph of ball python--maybe a clown morph--a valuable and adorable animal Yummy! Hi, sweetie!
But Mousie, thou art no thy lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft agley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
For promis'd joy!

At first I had questions: is the snake eating a rat? Is the snake trying to speak, but with a rat in its gullet, the words all sound like "gang aft agley"? WTF?
Then I realized hey, no one's gonna come after me and enlighten me on this one. Google is my friend.
Thank goodness it was the picture that was found and not the snake!
Jeffrey, that's the perfect title.
Thank you, captain in tenille...
I, too, find myself regularly trying to plug the holes in my spotty (formal) education.
Too much college/test/career prep, too little pursuit of meaning.

Its a beautiful picture, slightly ruined by the baggy underpants by the side of the vivarium.....
Yes, the OCD in me just wants to CLOSE that DRAWER and remove the baggy granny panties.
Is that snake habitat suitable? Shouldn't the snake have some sort of.. nature or something in there with him? A plant? A tree branch? It looks like he's stranded on a bed of charcoal or something.
